A Rare Westlake Estate — Your Private Ranch Retreat Just 15 Minutes from Downtown! Opportunities like this almost never come along. Set on nearly 3 acres of flat, usable land inside the coveted Westlake corridor, this gated estate combines Hill Country serenity with city convenience — offering not just a home, but a rare legacy property with extraordinary long-term value. The grounds are remarkable — a resort-style pool and spa, fully lit tennis court (also striped for pickleball) with its own clubhouse, and a private well for irrigation. Mature oaks and open lawns create a park-like setting ideal for family gatherings, entertaining, or future expansion. The property backs to a greenbelt with a wet-weather creek, ensuring lasting privacy and natural beauty. The main residence features 4 spacious bedrooms and 3.5 baths, designed for both elegance and comfort. A separate guest cottage with a full kitchen and living area is perfect for extended family or guests. A detached clubhouse provides endless flexibility — ideal as a teen lounge, game room, studio, or home gym. All structures feature newer metal roofs for durability and peace of mind. This is more than a home — it’s a unique landholding with significant future investment potential, whether as a private family compound, reimagined estate, or long-term redevelopment play in one of Austin’s most desirable areas featuring highly rated Westlake Eanes schools. Space, privacy, and unmatched upside — all just minutes from Downtown.
15 minutes from DT but feels like your own ranch! Sophisticated main home with 4 BR & 3.5 BA, separate guest cottage & separate Club-house situated on almost 3 acres. Hill Country views for miles from the back patio and pool/hot tub make for ideal outdoor entertaining and sunsets. Flat open spaces even allow for horses! Guest cottage features a full kitchen & open living. A fully lit tennis court is a bonus with its own separate club-house. A private, gated retreat in Eanes ISD.
